  1. No it does. You have stated the BBC were reluctant to let him go. This deserves some evidence to back it up.
  2. I agree his behavior is abhorrent. There may or may not have been these clauses you refer to in his contract, we neither of us know. We do know that dismissing people on the basis of unproven allegations ones with legal risks. The court is the arbiter of guilt, not the BBC.
  3. We now know Edwards is not ‘of the highest character’. I expect the BBC took legal counsel on the matter. Had the BBC dismissed him before the verdict and he had been found innocent, I expect the same perpetual BBC critics would be complaining about the cost of the ensuing legal settlement.
  4. Pensions are held in trust, they are not under the control of the beneficiary and hence not subject to confiscation.
  5. Not normalizing anything Jonny. Perhaps you should consider whether or not the rightwing hate mongering against immigrants plays any part in preventing victims of trafficking seeking help from the police and other authorities.
  6. Particularly if the allegation has been made but a conviction not yet handed down.
  7. It’s not unusual not to sack someone when they are charged with crimes but not yet convicted.
  8. I know that Mokwit. But right wingers claiming the BBC is left wing does not make it so. The Rightwing fixation on the BBC being left wing is not an opinion shared by the majority of the British Public: https://yougov.co.uk/topics/politics/trackers/is-the-bbc-more-favourable-towards-labour-the-left-or-the-conservatives-the-right
  9. A reminder, Edwards is no longer employed by the BBC.
  10. The rightwing would very much prefer the nations tv media, like most of the national newspapers, to be fully under the control of billionaires, many of whom are neither British citizens or residents of the UK.
  11. Do you have his membership details so that we can check this claim of your?
  12. This Sam Melia? ” He was found guilty of: Publishing or distributing material intending to stir up racial hatred. Encouraging or assisting the commission of the offence of racially aggravated criminal damage.” https://www.cps.gov.uk/cps/news/updated-sentence-far-right-organiser-found-guilty-intent-stir-racial-hatred-through
  13. You have my sympathy TBL, it can’t be easy.
  14. Obviously the fact that this is a discussion forum escaped you.
  15. The slaver I said should be imprison and deported? Or is that you posting a lie ridden slur?
  16. Reform of the SCOTUS needs to be put into the Harris election campaign. It has broad support across the electorate: https://today.yougov.com/politics/articles/50159-most-americans-support-term-limits-poll
  17. Well certainly the job Trump and the GOP wanted him to do.
  18. Your links never seem to be to actual court records, charged and convicted crimes. When presented with these you go silent.
  19. A bit of revisionism there Proton.
  20. Your on form this morning Jonny. Kicking off with your customary lie about people being jailed for ‘stupid post on Facebook’ and it never got better after that.
  21. In the riots being discussed they were the victims of violence t attack, looting and arson. Or did you miss that?
  22. As I have argued, Edwards has, as a customer of child pornography, provided the market that drives harm to children.
